Wifi performance abysmal since update a few days ago...
Hi all,
Is anyone else having this issue? Since my phone updated a few days ago with the HD calling stuff (VoLTE?) my wifi performance has gone right in the toilet. Performance before the update was terrific but now it's so bad that many apps don't work at all.
If I turn off wifi and use 4G everything is fine.
I'm wondering if this update did something to cause this.
Any info greatly appreciated.
RixxRafter,
Software updates on the phones are designed to enhance the phone operations. What type of wifi problems are you having with your device? We encourage you to remove the wifi connections and reconnect to them.

- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

When Creative Cloud updated a few days ago (Win7) it reported I had no installed apps.
In Lightroom I keep getting messages that a new version is available. Installed it from CC and it installed without error, CC shows I installed it, but it simply fails to run.
How do I get CC to find apps installed under the previous version?
And how do I get Lightroom CC to run?
PeterI still don't know how to get CC to find that I have Photoshop CC installed, but running Creative Cloud, going to Preferences and signing out, then signing in again got Lightroom CC to work.
Since Photoshop CC is still working despite apparently not being installed things are now OK, at least for the moment. But I'm not feeling at all happy with Adobe. -

Hey spiritdancer1955!

While this article is written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting steps will still apply for your iPad. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Computer has not been the same since updating a few weeks ago
Updated my 4GB Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro to OS X Mavericks. My battery now last 2 hours per charge and every program runs slow. This is frustrating me to the point of defeat. I have no idea what I need to do to remedy this problem. I have a business to run. If Apple is not up to the task of fixing this problem it may be time to move on to another operating system.
Hi MichelPM,
Thank you, I have taken your advice and posted the below. However, since installing Mavericks on my computer, there is nothing else installed on my computer since that point. I had installed a thing or two, but taken them off since.

This is the message when I Open Firefox:
"You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!"
At <Help> & <About Firefox>, it shows
Firefox
9.0.1
"Firefox is up to date"
"You are currently on the release update Channel"
One of those messages must be wrong. Either way Firefox seems to work fine otherwise. Thanks and regards, Peter SpielmanIs your homepage set to www.google.com/firefox? If so, that page is wrong. You should change your home page to about:home or some other site instead. The google.com/firefox page is no longer supported.

Ever since my iPhone 4 automatically updated a few days ago with iOS6 the majority of my phone's apps are either very slow or will not work at all (game apps). Is anyone else having this problem? and is there a fix?
since morning today i have been running the iphone 4 with safari icloud sync turned off. i also left bookmarks sync from itunes off. i unplugged the charger at 100% charge at excatly 10 am. i am on 86% at the moment and its 5.30 pm. however i had to plug in the phone to my macbook for 3g internet access at about 91% which got it charged back to 100%. that was for about 30 minutes. so i guess i would had been at around 75% if i hadn't done that.
so i think people are right about the bookmark causing battery drain thing.
tomorrow i am gonna try with the phone rebooted and charger to 100%, with no location service running in the background, just when the app is running, and with all bookmarks deleted from my iphone. if i have to use 3g off my iphone i would use wifi personal hotspot. usually all this use... a few calls, some internet access, whatsapp, maybe a few pictures, and music for say about 2 hours should still leave me 40-50% battery by night, after 16 hours of use. if that goes well, i might have saved my self restoring the iphone to new.
as for the mac, i figured out a way to use timemachine for a smaller hdd. i will simply 'move' those files i dont want to keep on my ssd anyway, to an external hdd. like podcasts, videos and movies. then take a TM backup when the used space is under 120 gb. and then restore that to the SSD. should work, hopefully.

My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.
That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it... -

I updated to 7.1.1 a few days ago and sincetoday touch id doesnt work
Hey there Reflekktor,
It sounds like you are not able to use Touch ID since updating to iOS 7.1.1. I would use these troubleshooting steps from the following article to help resolve the issue named:
iPhone 5s: Using Touch ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5883
Make sure that your fingers and the Home button are clean and dry.*
Note: Cover the Home button completely. Don't tap too quickly, don't press down hard, and don't move your finger while Touch ID is scanning. Make sure that your finger touches the metal ring around the Home button.
If you're using a protective case or screen protector, it must leave the Home button and the surrounding ring completely unobscured. If it doesn't, remove the case or screen protector and try again.
Tap Settings > Touch ID & Passcode and verify that:
iPhone Unlock or iTunes & App Store is on.
You enrolled one or more fingerprints.
Try enrolling a different finger.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,

I went in to my settings and worked and worked with it to no avail. So I decided to delete that account and try to re-add it. Forget it. I have worked for 2 days now or more and tried everything under the sun. I am not a computer geek but I am no dummy to them either. It always says server is not working or something like that. I have become so fed up with computer technology lately that I want to take my laptop, tablet and all of it and throw it against a brick wall. Why has everything become so complicated? I thought computer technology was improving. Not! Also, every single update rim had done has taken from my battery. When I first got it I could read on kobo for hours with no change in battery status hardly. After each update my battery got weaker and weaker until now I am lucky if I get an hour out of it on anything online and a good 2 hours reading, maybe. I loved it when I first got it, but it gets worse and worse. Help! I have a bellsouth email acct. and I used the info from my laptop and it gets and sends my mail just fine and has for forever. I just don't know what is up with it. And it would be so wonderful to have access to other readers besides just kobo. I tried to put some pdf books on it a few days ago and I could not get them to show up on my adobe reader for anything. I have others on there and some of them did and some didn't. Ugggh! What is up RIM with our tablets?
Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread. -
osx 10.7.4 safari 6.0 When I add a new bookmark to the "bookmarks menu" it is added somewhere in the middle instead of at the end of the list. This just started a few days ago after an update. Has anyone else noticed this?.
Just for those who are interested, this is what cleared the "bookmark menu" trbl I had.
Open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Bookmarks, then reselect it.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a bookmark again. -
Hey there! So I plugged in my ipod to my computer and it didn't show up where it normally does. I need to update my song list. How can I make it appear? It doesn't come up in iphoto either. A few days ago my sis plugged it into another computer but I don't know if she synched it to the other computer, and frankly, she won't remember. I have tried updating itunes, charging the ipod, restarting the ipod/computer, and the rest of what the apple site said to do. Ps I have the latest ipod touch
I need help stat! Please help!I'd say your sister messed up and your iPod is toasted.
Think about it... She plugged it in to another computer, she doesn't remember what she did (yeah, right), and now your iPod is not being recognized by your computer...
Also take into consideration how old is your sister, and how much does she know about electronics?
